You can re-calibrate your caliber in any moment.

That’s not luck.

Not everything important is urgent. Not everything urgent is important. The quiet skill of a meaningful life is learning the difference.

Most companies don't get focused until they have to. Until failure forces them. Ask any successful turnaround and you'll find the same story: they were doing too many things. They had to face that reality. Then they got focused. The complexity. The noise. The undisciplined pursuit of more. It almost always takes a crisis to fix it. Failure is the most common cause for suddenly getting out of the undisciplined pursuit of more. You don't have to wait for failure to teach you. You can choose to become an Essentialist now. Not the kind of leader who reacts to crisis. •The kind who leads before crisis arrives. •The kind who focuses before they have to. •The kind who employs the disciplined pursuit of less while everything is still working. That's rare. Most leaders won't do it until the threat of failure forces them. They look at what everyone else is doing—more projects, more initiatives, more everything—and they ask: "What if we did less, better?" They cut before they crash. They focus before they fail. What would change if you focused before you had to? 👇🏼

Remember: Producing a great result is good. Producing a great result with ease is better. Producing a great result with ease again and again is best. Effortless, pg 77

Daily reminder: Almost everything is noise, and a very few things are exceptionally valuable.

Don't give your kids everything you never had. Teach them everything you never knew.
